3) Unlimited right to copy the ebook to whichever device you are using at the time, instead of chaining you to only 2 locations.

DG, I got the Stephanie Plum novels, but can only read them on this work computer and at home. Couldn't even get it onto my reader. But you were right, they are a laugh riot!

As long as you can read them somewhere........I can't remember the last time I laughed so hard at something. Really annoyed my husband in bed, cause I wouldn't stop reading to explain why I was laughing..........

4) The right to truthful advertising. If you choose to ignore #3 and corrupt a perfectly good e-book with DRM then the monetary transactions involved with the resultant artifact can only be referred to as a rental. The terms buy, sell or own will not be used. The rental costs associated with these poor burdened items will be no more then 10% of the cost of an e-book without the corruption.

5) If both #3 & #4 are ignored then we retain the right, nay duty, to remove the corruption and free the literary marvel to a long life of friendship and love.

I'd be satisfied with simply: "Lower priced than the lowest priced paper version." Or perhaps "At least one dollar less than the cost of the lowest priced paper version."

That wont do at all. The publishers have this new format that's taller and narrower that has larger print so they can raise the price of what should be list piriced at $7.99. I do not want eBook prices to be based on this abomination at all.

Your criteria are different from mine. I suspect there are economic reasons driving the odd format books. I'm hoping ebooks will help to solve those problems, but I'm not counting on much discount beyond whatever they're charging for paper.

I was at Costco yesterday and say these of these new books at a lit of $9.99. They are slightly taller then a proper paperback, more expensive, might not fit in your bookcase, and feel unnatural to hold in your hand to read. Basically, they are an abomination of pBooks. Plus, if eBooks are priced based on the pBook, we'll have higher priced eBooks too.

I will not knowingly deprive any author or publishers of income by downloading a book that I have not bought a paper copy of, nor will I illegally download an eBook when there is a legal version available.

I will not give copies of my DRM-free eBooks to anybody, unless this is sanctioned by the author or publisher.
